The joys of refusing simple and safe vaccinations. From the Seattle Times:
Mumps outbreak reaches Seattle
The mumps outbreak in King County has moved into Seattle, with public-health officials confirming one adult case in the city.
In all, the total number of cases in the county as of Friday stood at 19 confirmed and 64 probable.
Auburn, where the outbreak started, has 67 of those cases. The remaining cases were spread among Kent, Federal Way, Covington, Pacific, Black Diamond, Bellevue, Algona and Des Moines.
Adult cases are bad because they can cause sterility in men. The ex-Doctor - Andrew Wakefield - who started this whole vaccines are linked to autism bullshit had his license to practice taken away when his paper on the subject was shown to be fraudulent and that he was being paid for his work by some lawyers who wanted to profit off the vaccine companies.
The Herd Immunity only works so far and when you go below the limit (75% to 86% vaccinated for Mumps), the disease is able to propagate freely.
